Chapter 5148: It Ran Away
It just hadn't cried this loudly before.
Zhen felt somewhat enlightened, but also a little confused.
It knew that humans cried.
But it still couldn't understand how they could cry for so long.
And in its view, crying served no purpose.
Why cry?
Still, Zhen had seen far too many human behaviors it couldn't understand.
It never—
Perhaps it had, at first.
But later, it stopped probing into the reasons behind them.
It was a monster.
It was only natural that it didn't understand humans.
Zhen nodded.
All right.
It more or less understood.
It wouldn't do to make those two children cry.
It wouldn't make humans cry next time.
Xiao Xiao raised an eyebrow.
Well.
What Zhen said...
wasn't exactly wrong, was it?
After crying hard for a while, the two children's sobs finally began to subside.
Their wails gradually turned into crying, then finally into sniffles.
Their little bodies trembled with each breath.
It was heartbreaking.
"It's all right now."
The police officer tried to keep his voice low and gentle.
"Look."
"There's a lot of people here."
"Uncle police is here, too."
"No one can hurt you."
"Tell Uncle police whatever happened."
"Uncle police will teach the bad guys a lesson."
The two children rubbed their eyes.
They reached out and grabbed the police officer's clothes.
"Uncle police."
The little girl hiccupped.
"There, there was a monster."
"A monster?"
The police officers were surprised.
"A monster?"
The aunt's voice went a little shrill.
Had she heard that right?
The child had said... monster?
"A monster?"
The little girl tugged at her aunt's skirt. "Auntie, she's so childish."
"How could there be monsters in this world?"
"There aren't any monsters in this world."
